Operation Sandbox GA Started in November of 2004 by co-founders Julie and Virginia Pearson.

What started out as a one time project to send 32 extra large Christmas stockings, totaling 420 lbs to Julie’s fiancé's unit in Iraq, rapidly expanded.

It was amazing to see the outpouring of love indicated by donations of money, time and items needed for our troops.

1948 Rover P3 Saloon
The 1948 Rover P3 Saloon marked a pivotal moment in the evolution of British motoring.
